🎥 More about this video:
Social media is addictive, and I think we're only beginning to understand the massive impact it has on our mental and emotional health. But what about our financial health? Social media has a way of distorting reality, pushing us to chase a lifestyle that isn't authentic, and spend through our bank accounts. In this video, we dive into how social media keeps you poor, and what you can do about it.
